What to Expect

Twice a year women of all ages from the greater Cincinnati area come expecting to meet God at the Jesuit Spiritual Center in Milford, Ohio, in the lovely Pavilion.

The lovely grounds and facilities of the Jesuit Spiritual Center in Milford, Ohio, along with the prepared environment created by our team of Spiritual Encouragers, offers a welcome day retreat for women of all ages.

• In preparation for an extended time of silence ​and solitude, 45 minutes of corporate worship focuses hearts and minds on the Lord, introducing a variety of spiritual practices, which include Scripture, prayerand song. This helps to set the tone for the day, assisting in the transition from the noise and busyness of life to the peace and tranquility of retreat.

• Four hours of silence are set apart for you to connect with God. Encounters with God might take place while exploring the beautiful grounds, sitting by the river, walking the prayer labyrinth, reclining under a shade tree or resting comfortably inside the Pavilion. • At the end of the afternoon, the women return to community to share their God experiences as they feel led. The retreat day comes to a close with a prayer of thanks-giving and a blessing for all.
